Alaska Sightseeing Tours
From Seward to Fairbanks, Alaska's railbelt communities offer a wealth of guided sightseeing tours. Anchorage is an excellent place to start. The local city tour offers an overview of Alaska's largest community, its history, and vibrantly diverse culture. For a longer outing, try the Turnagain Arm Tour for a fully narrated drive down the scenic waterway south of the city.
Two hours south of Anchorage, the seaside town of Seward is home to the IdidaRide Sled Dog Real Alaska Tour. It is an excellent way to connect with a local family and their life in the Last Frontier. Meet their sled dogs, get up close to massive glaciers, and see spawning salmon all in one six-hour experience.
For those visiting Denali National Park, take a Denali bus tour to experience the park's history, wildlife, and vast landscapes. These tours travel the Park Road and are the best way for visitors to explore beyond the park boundaries.
The Interior town of Fairbanks is rich in frontier history, a story told in an entertaining way on the Fairbanks Historical City Tour. You could also take a Riverboat Discovery Cruise along the Chena River. Enjoy an Alaska bush plane demonstration, an introduction to dog mushing, and a visit to an Athabascan village site.
Want to go even farther north? Alaska Tour & Travel can help arrange Arctic Circle tours for those visitors wanting to experience the stark beauty of this remote region. Choose from a two-night Arctic Circle tour north or southbound, with the chance to touch the Arctic Ocean and travel along the famous "Haul Road." For those looking for a day trip, opt for sightseeing by van from Fairbanks on the Arctic Circle Drive Adventure. Traveling in winter? Don't miss the chance to see the northern lights on an aurora tour.
